There are a lot or recipes for fried chicken, many try to imitate the famous KFC secret recipe, you can see my version here.
But let's face it, as good as KFC might be, it's convenience food and why try and make something when you can simply buy it. The only reason I can think of is to make it better.
You just can't beat the freshness of home made fried chicken. Now this is not a copycat recipe, but it is quite simple to make and despite its simplicity, I'll be bold enough to claim that it's the best fried chicken recipe you will ever find. With the smokiness of the paprika, the popcorn like crunchy coating and the brined moist chicken thigh, you will be amazed at the outcome.
I've made this using boneless, skinless chicken thighs but you can certainly make it with breast and keep the skin on if you prefer.
Serve it with a salad or you can also use this recipe for an awesome chicken burger.
Make it quick before this also becomes a secret fried chicken recipe!
